Whether you were a driver or a helper I can't say. There has been talk about your comment to Legate during the voting ("See, I told you one vote could make a bandwagon"), and I could totally see that as a "Hey, that worked!" from wolf to wolf.
I could have not said it and saved myself the suspicion it caused. But we always don't think things through before hitting "send." I was in "look at me, pay attention to me mode" for most of Day 2. As Kath observed the following day:

The wolves would want to draw out Gifteds, not distract from them, so I'm feeling ok about Boro at the moment.
My response to Kath:

As I've said though, I'm done steering toDay and will vote for either Morsul, sally or Pitch.
Now personally I took this to mean she dreamed of me, saw I was innocent and was basically saying "calm the buggers down." This is something I don't know for sure, because I agree with Legate's assessment that it isn't definitive enough I look "ok at the moment."

Now everyone knows I'm a bold and insane wolf, consider this...knowing that I saw this and responded to Kath as I did yesterday. Do you think if I was a wolf I wouldn't be all over this in trying to make it look like Kath dreamed me an innocent and therefor be focusing on "proving" that today? But I can't be sure of this, so I haven't been focusing on trying to "prove" Kath dreamed me innocent and I think Legate's analysis of her dreams looked fair/made sense.

Or you lost interest in lynching Lottie when I backed off her (I need to check the chronology), went wolf-on-wolf against Legate and when Hui engaged you about it you took the opportunity to go after him instead.
Ask yourself if a bold and aggressive wolf-Boromir, would suddenly back off on a known innocent? If I was a wolf I would have known Lottie was innocent, and I would have kept going after her, not switched up to do a wolf-on-wolf exchange with Legate. Of course, I realize this defense doesn't prove anything, just stating what happened.

Naturally, that makes me worry if they're good or evil. Here the "scheming" you were doing was whatever was the point of pursuing Legate for the first half of the Day, then dropping it and going for Huin instead. I don't think it was wrong of me to think of that as nefarious. In fact, I still think it entirely possible that you and Legate are the remaining wolves (in which case, toDay has not started very well). And yeah, I still don't know what the back-and-forth between you, Huin and Legate was about. It's hard to believe you'd all be innocent. I'm planning to look at that toDay. And as for why I voted for Huin and not you - I thought you might be "scheming" but it was not my main line of suspicion. In fact, if you look back, I thought the order of suspiciousness in your trio was Huin > Legate > you (which was likely stupid of me, given even the statistic likelihood of one of you two others being a wolf).
It's not wrong to think my tricks are nefarious, I often can be. As I said, it's not the scheming that bothers me so much. It's the fact that you seem to be implying I'm up to no good with my behavior on Day 2, but decided instead to vote for Huey to "unravel the knot." So, what I'm saying is I'm not following, why did you think finding Huey's role would "unravel the knot" of what I was up to? Why wouldn't voting Legate or myself reveal the same thing?

I very much doubt G55 straightaway gave them Sori's alignment. Therefore, they must have concluded it from some more vague information they got. Does this mean that it is foolproof? NO. Does it mean that we should trust it for toDay? Certainly. Does it mean that we should trust it for the rest of the game, if it goes on? I think so. I mean frankly, we don't have the time to suspect someone who is 95% likely innocent. If Soriman is a wolf somehow and we lose because of that, I'm gonna blame the dead thread. So we can discount him for now. As I belive I said before, so I don't know why you dedicated a whole post to "arguing against me". Makes me think you want to keep the village talking about information we already have, ie Soriman's innocence, instead of looking for the wolves.
I do apologize, it's not my intention to cause offense. My thinking is yesterday and today, you, sally and Pitch have tried to raise up a whole bunch of confusion about the Ghost's info, and I have no idea why because the messages they have conveyed have not been ambiguous at all. To continue questioning that information today looks to me like someone trying to increase confusion about the dead's messages. Cobblers love confusion, and I know we don't have cobblers, so that's why it looks like wolvery.

You claim that my post is wanting to continue to talk about Huey's messages today. And I say look at my other posts, have I been completely focused on Huey's messages? I don't think so. I brought it up again because I saw your comment as an attempt to cause confusion about the info Huey has given us.

Edit: This novel crossed with a bunch of others. Oh this is going to be a mad deadline. I'm considering voting within the next hour.
